    From my rank amateur lense, that looks to be a later model Swenson reflecting a few tweaks as he went along i.e. "name plate", stippling along the top to cut glare and the better fastening of what I presume is still an S&W revolver rear sight?

    P.E., you definitely need a set of VCD grips to take full advantage of the gun....just sayin'

    That's what Todd realized, and as the owner of multiple sets of David's grips, I personbally attest that he was absolutely right (that and the realization that Todd's skill level was several magnitudes greater than mine). Along with the benefits of a bright orange front sight.

    Best, Jon

    If he was a really good friend, he’d have one and you'd have one, too.

    That is the plan! If I own it, it gets used at least a little bit!

    Out Of The Box And To The Match shouldn't be too much of a risk with this one

    I need to fit up an ambi for my "sinister side" needs, give it a good once over
    and photographically catalog it before it hits the range. But I will run it at a match or two!

    Phonepicked one after a good going over. Waiting on an ambi.

    It feels really good in the hands, not sure how much of that feel is...what it is, but I dig it!
